My daughter had this on her Amazon wish list and was very excited when she received it as one of her Christmas gifts. She loves Sudoku!

Don't advertise "spiral bound" if the spiral binding has an awkward hard binding over it.
One would assume that the sole reason for advertising a spiral bound sudoku book is that customers want a book that will LAY FLAT ON A TABLE. This book does not. Having nothing to do with its content, the format of this book is very unfortunate and the description above is misleading.

The format gets an A+ for me -- compact book with lots of room to write, and the glossy paper erases easily, which is great.
My only quibbles - the difficulty level is not consistent. Some of the moderate puzzles are walkoff easy, and some are really miserably hard. And my other quibble really is a quibble... I miss the symmetric format of the starting squares, which is customary with Sudoku.
So the format gets five stars from me, and the content three, and overall I guess that averages out to four stars!

The book is divided into ability sections. There is plenty of room to write the numbers with white space around the puzzle to make notes. It provides hours of challenge!

There are many ways to find Sudoku puzzles; but, what is unique about this book of puzzles is that it is a spiral notebook. Much easier to open the pages flat to do the puzzles. Other bound books must be held open by one hand while marking with the other. This book lies flat and is much easier to use.
